Transferring music from an iPod Nano gen 1

I have oneof those Nanos that needs to be returned.  Anyone know how I can transfer my music from the Nano to my computer.  The music was downloaded from cd's loaded onto an old computer, which no longer works.  Anybody?

  • Transferring music from my Ipod 3rd gen to my Computer

    There are songs on my device that I would like to transfer to my Itunes computer account (they were from an old computer that I no longer have.)
    How do I do this as sync says it will delete the songs from the device and replace them with the ones in my library?
    Thanks alot!

    It will delete everything. The ipod touch is not a backup device.
    You should move your music from the old computer to the new one before you sync. You can use your backup copy for this - external drive, DVD,cd's, flash drive, etc.
    The ipod touch will sync with one computer at a time and the music sync is one way - computer to ipod.

  • HT1382 how can I sync music from a iPOD Nano Generation 4 to an iPhone 5?

    I have just bought my first iPhone.  I went with the iPhone 5.  I also have an older iPod Nano that I have had for several years.  Almost all of my music is located on the iPod and only the songs I have purchased through iTunes Store are showing up on my iTunes account.  How can I get the music files to sync from the iPod Nano to the iPhone 5?  I have already set up iCloud on my iPhone 5 but I don't think that will help me with getting the music from the iPod Nano to the iPhone 5.  Thank you

    There is no supported way to transfer library content synced to an iDevice to another iDevice.  You also cannot sync library content from an iDevice to a different iTunes library.  Content transfer is from the itunes library on the computer to the iDevice.
    The one exception is purchased content (from the iTunes store), which can be transferred to the computer by selecting the "Transfer Purchases" menu option with hte device connected to the computer.
    The only resolution I could offer, is that you "Could" (assuming you still have the original computer with the content) transfer the music via homesharing or another method listed in the following KB article:

  • HT1209 how to transfer music from old iPod nano to new iPod touch

    how to transfer music from old iPod nano to new iPod touch ?

    The 1st and 2nd gen iPod shuffle can only be used with one iTunes library (not "account") at a time.  Your Apple ID and password does not matter.  (Later shuffles can be used with more than one iTunes library, IF it is set to use the Manually manage music option.)
    So, if you sync it with a different iTunes library, the previous content will be replaced.  You need to offload the existing content to your new computer's drive as the first step.
    You cannot transfer song files from iPod to computer using iTunes, except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store.  However, there are third-party methods and utilities that can transfer from iPod to computer.  If you do an Internet search on something like "ipod transfer," you should get some links.  (The CNET article seems to be popular.)
    Once the song files are on your computer's drive, you can add them to the iTunes library.  After confirming all of your songs are there, sync your shuffle with that iTunes library.

    You should take the time to familiarize yourself with the documentation that is available.  You can "uncheck" a song in iTunes, and then do a manual update.

  • How do i get music from my ipod nano onto my iphone 3g

    How do i get music from my ipod nano onto my iphone 3g????                             

    You don't.
    You sync music from itunes on your computer to iphone.
    Everything that is on your Nano should be in itunes on your computer, as that is where it came from in the first place.
    Just sync whatever you like to your iphone.

  • CAN I TRANSFER MY MUSIC FROM MY IPOD NANO TO MY MACBOOK PRO

    can i transfer my music from my ipod nano to my macbook pro.

    Yes, you can. If your music collection was purchased from iTunes, you are in a good shape since that music is forever yours under your iTunes account. Therefore, after installing iTunes on your new computer, sign into your account and see all your music under "Purchsed". Then simply download it to be phisically present onto your macbook pro (for free since you've already paid for it).
    On the other hand if you happens to not be a sucker to waist money on iTunes and your collection was ripped from the internet (via torrents and such), you can follow this guide to transfer ipod music to mac. Hope it helps. Feel free to email me if you need further help.

  • What is the name of the $20 program that has a red itunes icon that transfers music from your ipod to itunes?

    What is the name of the $20 program that has a red itunes icon that transfers music from your ipod to itunes?

    I second the whole iTunes folder approach.
    If for some reason you have split the media folder from the library files then the media folder needs to restored to the same path it used to have while the library files can be copied into the music folder of your new profile.
    If in dobut, backup up the entire Documents and Settings folder before wiping the infected drive, but be selective about what you restore as many viruses drop active components capable of reinfecting the compuer in the temp folders and internet caches. It is much easier to backup more than you need than to discover after the fact that you no longer have access to some vital project you'd been storing in a folder on the desktop.

  • How do i play music from my ipod shuffle gen 4 on external powered speakers

    Can I play music from my IPOD shuffle gen 4 using external powered speakers?  If so, how do I hook it up?

    First a curiosity question. Why do you want to play through the computer? Why not use headphones?
    Ok, now to your question. I have never done this before, but this intrigued me. I did some experimenting and got it to work. Here is what I did:
    1) Connect Touch to computer.
    2) Open iTunes.
    3) Your device will show up in the left panel.
    4) Click the little triangle next to your device to expand it.
    5) You now have access to the different content on the Touch.
    I have played stuff from Music, Movies and my playlists. Everything works the same way as if it was on your PC.
    Hope that helps and good luck!
